Bear Creek Trail

Bear Creek Trail is a 1-mile trail along Bear Creek that starts at South Main Street and ends at the Shannon Street bridge in Sodalis Nature Preserve. The trail is only for hiking, biking, and running; no motorized vehicles are allowed. Bear Creek Trail will be extended another ½ mile to St. John Street, with work to start in 2018.

Late in 2016, outdoor fitness equipment was installed at the west end of Bear Creek Trail near Ely Street. The ENERGI Total Body Fitness System by PlayWorld is an outdoor total body fitness system designed for ages 13 and up and uses the latest cutting-edge fitness methodologies. The station features 24 exercises and combines functional fitness and body-weight training on three skill levels. Maxx Vance of Hannibal donated funds for the equipment.
